pokochasz ją Zarejestruj się w LibraryThing żeby zobaczyć czy polubisz tą książkę. The William E. Massey Sr. Lectures in the History of American Civilization. This is a collection of opinions and observations on the place of the "literary pursuit" in his life and the American conciousness at the turn of the 21st century. Winding through them is a thread of feeling about tragedy of the World Trade Center on 9/11/2000. I have always liked his fiction and I am now sure I would like the man too. I wish I could invite him to dinner. (  ) gmillar | Jun 23, 2007 |   brak recenzji | dodaj recenzję

"The writer," according to Emerson, "believes all that can be thought can be written...In his eyes a man is the faculty of reporting, and the universe is the possibility of being reported." And what writer worth his name, E. L. Doctorow asks, will not seriously, however furtively, take on the universe? Human consciousness, personal history, American literature, religion, and politics--these are the far-flung coordinates of the universe that Doctorow reports here, a universe that uniquely and brilliantly reflects our contemporary scene.
